Chapter 187 Punishment Camp (Subscription Request)
"Qiu Shui, this is too difficult for you."

“There’s no need to go to this extent.”

"The Chu family and the Huo family are of the same blood."

"You can also be my deputy."

Chu Wujiang immediately stood up from the armchair to greet Huo Qiushui and treated him as a lord.

When they parted yesterday, he gave Huo Qiu Shui a token, allowing her to enter the Chu Mansion directly without notifying anyone.

So before the old housekeeper could react, Huo Qiushui had already come to the living room, knelt on one knee and saluted:
"One minister does not serve two masters."

"Now, I can serve you wholeheartedly."

The old butler couldn't help but fall silent. Yanluo was furious and gnashed her teeth in her heart.

[How can you, the eldest daughter of the Huo family, be so shameless! ]

[What do you mean by leaving the family and joining the master? Do you have any dignity at all? ]

[Also, you are a beauty who brings disaster easily, so please don't harm your husband.]

Unfortunately, Chu Wujiang doesn't care about this.

He accepted Huo Qiushui's loyalty generously, helped him up, and said thoughtfully:
"Since ancient times, ministers have chosen their rulers, and rulers have chosen their ministers."

"Qiu Shui, can you tell me why the Chu family is recruiting so many people this time?"

After Huo Qiu Shui stood up, she realized that this was Chu Wujiang's way of asking her to gain the trust of the core members of the Chu family.

You, the eldest daughter of the Huo family, suddenly come here to pledge allegiance. Not to mention whether Chu Wujiang believes it or not, even Coach Wang of the Chu family, Chief Coach Lin, the old housekeeper, Yan Luo and others, they all have to be convinced.

If Chu Wujiang wants to command his subordinates to fight for their lives, he cannot act arbitrarily and must consider their feelings.

Huo Qiushui answered directly:

"My Lord, the mermaids are powerful and numerous."

“If the Chu family alone resists the merman army, even if we win, we will still be defeated.”

"Although the Chu family has many servants, they were not cultivated overnight."

"The world is about to fall into chaos, how can we easily undermine our foundation?"

Although the old butler is highly skilled in martial arts, he does not understand military affairs.

He only saw that the head of the Chu family did not trust the servants in the family and let outsiders earn the money and merits, so he rarely complained.

This time, Chu Wujiang is fighting against the mermaid army. He not only has to win, but also win beautifully.

Pyrrhus' victory was not permissible.

So he has to mobilize all the forces he can use.

The old housekeeper understood now and said with some shame:
"Miss Huo has excellent insight, and this old servant is far inferior to her."

"How can these martial arts disciples and ordinary farmers bear such a heavy burden?"

At this time, in the living room of the Chu family, many guards nodded in unison, repeating just two words.

Chu Wujiang was appointed as the commander of Longzhou, which was a great thing. The guards of the Chu Mansion all wanted to get an official position, so they were naturally very concerned about it.

Children of martial arts schools can serve as soldiers, but the quality is mostly poor.

Huo Qiushui chuckled:
"That's easy."

"Just let me demonstrate it to you."

While the old housekeeper was still confused, Huo Qiu Shui closed her eyes and sacrificed her Yuandan. A terrifying murderous intent spread out from her.

The true meaning of hell contains four kinds of power: killing, fear, punishment, and mercy. It is the most suitable martial arts meaning for the battlefield.

Now this murderous intent was like a dark cloud, hanging over everyone.

call!
The old butler's hair stood on end, Yanluo drew out his dagger, and the guards all took defensive stances. Some guards even activated their vital energy, which combined into a large formation to resist the murderous aura.

They have all undergone rigorous training and have strong resistance to killing and fear.

Some maids accidentally collapsed to the ground, shivering.

"Qiu Shui, that's enough."

Chu Wujiang realized that the guards of the Chu Mansion were in a state of stress and they might rush up and fight at any time, so he ordered Huo Qiu Shui to stop.

Huo Qiushui bowed slightly:
"Master Steward, Master Lin, Miss Yanluo, I apologize for any offense."

Instructor Lin looked solemn and said nothing. Yan Luo lowered her head and clenched her dagger. The old butler breathed a sigh of relief:

"I understand now. With Miss Huo's help, we will definitely be able to train first-class soldiers."

"Miss Huo, please feel free to ask for anything you need."

Huo Qiushui paused and said:

"Training soldiers requires a lot of resources. I will definitely discuss this with the housekeeper."

"If the lord is worried that the merman army will attack and cause the Chu family to suffer losses, there is still a place where soldiers can be used."

"Where?" Huo Qiushui said frankly:

"It's someone from the Baili family."

Although the Duke of Zhenguo relied on the secret letter from the sad monk to save some face for the Imperial Observatory.

But the fate of the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion has not changed, and someone is still responsible for this matter.

There is only one Master Beiku, but his contribution is not enough. In addition, Master Dafan killed the descendants of the evil god and made many contributions, which to a certain extent whitewashed the sins of the Mahayana Temple.

Therefore, the Earl of Loyalty and Bravery was still convicted of treason and could not turn the tables, so he was awaiting execution.

Chu Wujiang frowned and said:

"A servant of the Loyal and Brave Marquis's residence?"

“This is too unbelievable.”

The servants trained by noble families for generations are not all death-defying warriors, but their loyalty is still very high.

If the Earl of Loyalty and Bravery were still alive, he would have directly ordered a rebellion, and most of the servants would have followed him to the end, as they were members of a noble family.

There is only one way to deal with the enemy's iron plates: kill them all.

Huo Qiushui nodded and said:

"The core members are naturally unusable, but when they reach the level of body forging, there are also many outer guards."

"Their loyalty is not high, and the court also controls their families, so they can be incorporated into the punishment camp."

"They will surely die, but after making contributions, they can leave their women behind."

The servants of the Earl of Loyalty and Bravery, their families including servants and female relatives were all wiped out, and tens of thousands of people could be killed in one go.

If you say that these are all death warriors, that is definitely false.

For a normal noble family, a core backbone of several hundred people is enough.

Because all of these are fed with huge amounts of silver. The average cost of a Yuantai realm warrior will never be less than 10,000 taels of silver, and a Yuandan realm warrior will cost at least 100,000 taels of silver.

Chu Wujiang pondered for a moment. It wasn't him who killed the Marquis Zhongyong.

If they wanted to hate someone, they would hate the imperial court at most, and they were not afraid of them surviving.

"Qiu Shui, are you sure?"

Huo Qiushui nodded:
"After my subordinates awaken their powers, their vitality can be combined with medicines to make people willingly take them, and I can control them to the greatest extent possible."

"It's just that the intelligence level will drop rapidly, and it can only be used as a consumable."

Now it's not just Chu Wujiang who remembered, even the old butler remembered it.

Huo Qiu Shui's nickname is beauty brings disaster.

This kind of physique is extremely dangerous. It not only brings disaster, but also harms others.

Her vitality has a built-in control effect.

If Huo Qiu Shui's vitality is combined with medicine, it can also have the effect of Sanshi Brain Pills.

Unfortunately, her cultivation level is still too low, and she can only control warriors in the Body Tempering Realm for the time being.

For the death row prisoners in the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery’s Mansion, they can be completely recycled.

With one hand controlling their family members and the other hand providing medicine, it was enough to ensure that they fought desperately on the battlefield.

In ancient dynasties, if a soldier dared to escape, his entire family would be killed.

[Maybe I can be a little bolder. I still have the "Demon Bliss Technique" on me. I can use Huo Qiushui as a cover and try to control them.]

Chu Wujiang thought of this and smiled with satisfaction:
"That's enough."

"Qiu Shui, I'm at ease with you doing the job."

"We will inform Marquis Jingping right away and go to the government office."

……

Dragon City, Government Office

Chu Wujiang, Marquis Jingping, Huo Qiushui and Prefect Liu appeared in the prison of the government office.

Prefect Liu led the way and explained:

"Reply to the two Marquises, Miss Huo's words."

"The prisoners on death row here are all diehards of the Baili family. After the Ghost Festival tomorrow, I will behead them all."

The steward of the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion flew into a rage when he saw the Marquis of Jingping and the others:
"Dog thief!"

"You swore by Longjiang and deceived us."

"I will transform myself into a fierce ghost and come here to take revenge!"
